the big apple!

the week of new years i went to new york city for the first since i've gotten my new camera. of course, i've been there many times before. all of these pictures were taken on manual light settings. it was the first time i took shots on manual, and i'm excited with how they came out. it was fun to take city shots! its so easy to get creative. i can't wait to go back there and get more pictures when the weather gets warmer!
